I'm swimming to save lives

  • This is my first year diving

  • in for youth mental health

Did you know suicide is the leading cause of death for young people in Australia?

That means that each year more young people die by suicide than in car accidents or from cancer.

This March, I'm swimming to make sure young people in Australia have the mental health support they urgently need.

By sponsoring my challenge, you’ll be helping to prevent youth suicide.

All funds raised will help young people feel better about today and the future, no matter what challenge they're facing.

Swimming is a beautiful escape 🩷

The greatest reward has been knowing that my efforts, however small, have contributed to something meaningful. Swimming for mental health has deepened my appreciation for the sport and strengthened my commitment to supporting those who need help. It’s a reminder that doing what we love can also be a powerful force for good. For anyone considering combining their passion with a cause, I encourage you to take the plunge. Whether it’s swimming, running, cycling, or any other activity, using what you love to help others is one of the most rewarding experiences you can have. I'm so glad that I was part of Laps for Life and looking forward to achieving more laps next year

Peace

Swimming is not just great exercise but also a way to find peace and relaxation. There is nothing more peaceful than the sound of the water while you swim. Swimming allows you to disconnect from stress, feel weightless and enjoy the soothing rhythm of the water 💦🌊
